Make sure that the EHR performs at a satisfactory level. I know of nothing that frustrates a clinic more than a slow EHR.

It’s always a challenge for me since there are only so many hours in a day to be demoing the more than 300 EHR companies out there. So, instead of doing a full demo, I asked Deanna to highlight a feature of Chart Talk that set them apart from other EHR software companies. She told me that Chart Talk’s killer feature was its integration with Dragon Naturally Speaking’s voice recognition software. I was very familiar with DNS and other voice recognition software, so I was interested to see if they really could create a deep integration of Dragon Medical over the other EHR software I’d seen that integrated it as well. I have to admit that I w...

Their story features an exclusive video made especially for MedGadget in which I talk about cardiopulmonary resuscitation and demonstrate our application for smart phones as well as our CPR PRO Cradle, which makes chest compressions easier to perform. You can watch the video here as well, but be sure to visit MedGadget since they are offering 20 promo codes to the fastest readers to download the app for free.

It shows you how to export a bunch of feeds from MedWorm into GoogleReader, grouped by medical specialty, or by topic such as a medical condition (in this case diabetes).I should probably start with a 'What is MedWorm' video, but I was too excited to show you the OPML export which I have been working on recently, so the introductory MedWorm video will just have to come later.There's a better quality video that I uploaded to Screencast here, but since I can't afford a Pro account yet you won't be able to view it there once it has gone over my 2GB bandwidth limit. (Honest, really can't afford to spend another penny more until I find some money from somewhere, see MedWorm Goes Bust).I produced it using Camtasia Studio. Let me know what you ...

This has never been more true on this blog than this week. The comments have been thoughtful and there’s been some really interesting back and forth discussion. One example of a discussion that began in the comments is around the benefit of being able to be given a demo EMR system that you can sit down and try. I’m not talking about a demo of the EMR software by someone (often a sales person) from the EMR vendor. I’m talking about a real life system where people on their own can go around and try out the EMR software. There are so many things involved in this discussion that I’ll just throw out a few ideas and let the discussion continue in the comments. Do you load the demo EMR...

In fact, I was impressed that the EMR vendor admitted up front that you would need to change your clinic to work with their EMR software. I’ve said this a number of times on this site, but it was kind of refreshing to hear an EMR vendor admit it. I’ll have more on the rest of the demo/presentations in future posts. What was most interesting was that after admitting that you would need to change the way you work to use an EMR, he made a really interesting and powerful point. The basic concept was that if you don’t have an EMR, your current workflow is bound by the paper world in which you now live. Hopefully, adding an EMR to the mix provides some new ways to serve patients that were impossibl...

If you’ve ever talked to a EMR sales person, you know what I’m talking about. This isn’t really unique to EMR sales. The same can be said of most software that’s trying to solve complex problems. Well, there’s one EMR vendor sales line that gets on my nerves more than any other line. Let’s take a demo of an EMR vendor’s templates. Now here’s the line that I absolutely abhor: “You can make it do whatever you want.” Hearing this is like hearing fingernails on a chalkboard for me. Certainly, the intent of their comment is that the EMR template creation is really flexible (and it very well might be). However, the superlative “whatever” is just wrong. Every ...

Ha I say!Of course I had a beautiful Google Calendar set up and prepopulated, a tracking spreadsheet, and a highly idealized vision of how this would all go.The reality was over 300 hours of calls, emails, panicked last minute changes, time zone errors, missed opportunities, miscommunications, and heartache as some companies put in work for presentations that didn't fit formatting requirements and had to go back to the draw...
